Huge £2.9 million Glasgow mansion up for sale is 'most impressive home in the west end'

There are some pretty major properties in Glasgow, and the 'leafy west end' is home to some of the most impressive in the city.

But this enormous £2.9 million on Cleveden Drive really is in a league of its own and has been described by Savills as "arguably the most prominent home in the west end".

Located within a B-listed building, the five-bedroom property boasts a library, drawing room, games room, cinema - and much more.

The property description by Savills reads: "40 Cleveden Drive is arguably the most prominent home in the West End of Glasgow. A double fronted, blonde sandstone property consisting of five ensuite bedrooms over four floors, sitting in a plot of around 0.37 acres with an in and out drive and extending to an extraordinary 9100 sq ft, ‘Lochgarry’ as it was once known, must be the ultimate townhouse. The restoration vision of Archial architects and the current owners for this former institutional facility has created what is surely the most impressive home in the west end.

"Constructed over four floors, the house blends modern comfort and design whilst protecting the proportions and the framework of a B Listed, period property. The quality of craftsmanship and finish ensures that Lochgarry sits in a class of its own.

"This residence marries traditional and contemporary with the floor to ceiling glass windows fusing with the traditional original building, a glass staircase meeting wooden wall panelling, and cutting edge technology integrating seamlessly with classic interiors.

"A new two-storey curved glass extension was formed to create a contemporary family room with lots of natural light, bringing a sense of the outdoors inside. Considerable structural alterations were also required to accommodate a glass staircase, skylight and domestic leisure facilities.

"Attention to detail is evident everywhere and was of paramount importance given the incorporation of state-of-the-art energy management systems while renovating and preserving the extensive period features within the home."
